"This is the best and beautiful hospital very Good Treatment for kids and women’s 💕❤️"
"Really good service, had to take my 8 years old son over to the A&E department after he spent he night throwing up , we were seen very quickly by the doctor and got the adequate treatment. We were visiting from Uk and didn’t have to pay anything after showing our GHIC card . Thank you 🙏"
"Incredible hospital - the kid-friendly interior, the amenities, the doctors’ attitude towards children… wow, top class. I only went to emergencies and the whole thing took an hour and a half, and we got our own room to wait for the doctor. I hope your children never need to stay in the hospital, but if they do - this is the best place in which they can recover."
"I can’t recommend this hospital enough. We delivered our firstborn daughter here in the end of September and everything was just perfect. From the first meeting in the emergency room to our two night staying there after the delivery. I met so many different people and different kind of nurses and doctors and literally everyone we met was sooo nice, calm, professional and I felt so safe during the whole labor and the days after! I’m so grateful for my experience here and it really means the world to have people like this around you in this situations ❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much for an incredible experience and for treating us the way you all did 🙏🏼❤️🫶🏻🫶🏻"
"Let me paint you a quick picture about this place: we walked into the hospital with nerves, excitement, and a bag packed like we were moving in. But from the moment we arrived, the staff; especially the gynaecologist; welcomed us with warmth, care, and professionalism that felt like family (the loving kind, not the ones who ask too many questions!). Then came the midwifes; a true legend. They made the labour look like something you could do during lunch break. Calm, confident, and so reassuring, they had me thinking childbirth was just everyday activity. Their approach? Simply elite. And the best part? I’d recommend this place even to my enemies. Yes, it’s that good. To the whole team—thank you. Keep shining, and may the universe reward you with endless good vibes!"
